In Six Small Squares
We meet on screen in six small squares
To stay in touch, as each one shares
What’s going on, the latest news;
To do so, Zoom is what we use.
We’re scattered now, so our routine
Of monthly dates where we’d convene
Has modified to just the talk –
No lunch, museum, shop or walk.
In six small squares, we can assess
Who’s doing well or who’s a mess.
We trade advice and give support
And somehow help to hold the fort.
We’ve met for almost forty years
And our connection perseveres.
Though age has caught us unawares,
We stay the same in six small squares.
